Product details

DC-rated 4-pole MCB for industrial DC bus protection

Its C-curve tripping characteristic (5–10× In) handles moderate inrush from DC motor drives, contactor coils, and control transformers without nuisance trips. Rated 20 A at 35 °C ambient, it derates to 17.4 A at 55 °C — the 55 °C figure is the one to size against if the breaker sits in a warm cabinet next to drives or power supplies. Breaking capacity is 10 kA at 880 V DC per IEC 60947-2, and 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 — so it clears a hard DC bus fault up to that level without cascading upstream. The 4-pole design (4P) switches both poles of a two-wire DC circuit plus two auxiliary poles, or handles a split DC bus. Polarity must be observed on the supply cord connection.

Snap-on quick assembly system; mounting position any orientation. Touch protection is built in. Sealable — panel builders can lock the setting with a lead seal after commissioning. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction for sensitive environments like food processing or semiconductor fabs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative to 5SY5420-7CC?

The 5SY5416-7 is a 4-pole DC MCB in the same SENTRON family but with a lower current rating (16 A vs 20 A). It shares the same 880 V DC rating, C-curve, and 4 MW footprint, so it drops into the same DIN-rail slot without rewiring — just a different ampacity for the load.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY5420-7CC?

The breaker carries IEC 60947-2 (10 kA DC), UL 1077, and CSA C22.2 No. 235 (5 kA AC) approvals. It is classified per IEC 81346-2 and DIN EN 61346-2 as function F. RoHS, REACH, and CE declarations are standard for the SENTRON series — request them with the order.

Where can I buy 5SY5420-7CC and how is it quoted?

We source this part through independent industrial distribution and quote it to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for volume or single-piece needs.
